Previously, DirecTV subscribers could use their iPad as some sorta pseudo TV because the app could stream Live TV while you were on your home Wi-Fi network. Now the app's been updated to be even better: you can watch some content anywhere, even if you're not at home.

Hooray! DirecTV just updated its iPad app with the ability to stream live TV. You have to be connected to the same network as your DirecTV Plus HD DVR but that's okay cause it turns your iPad into another TV.

DirecTV has just released an iPad app that lets you browse and search their schedule (up to 2 weeks out), set recordings on the go and even check sports scores to see if the game is worth watching. Free. [iTunes]
